abstract: Compares short tandem repeat (STR) profiles to authenticate biomedical models
  such as cell lines and xenografts against the primary tissue samples they were derived
  from. Provides the Tanabe (Sorenson-Dice), Masters (versus query), and Masters (versus
  reference) similarity scores, heuristics for detecting sample mixing, flexible ingest
  of wide and long profile formats, comparison against user-supplied reference databases,
  and querying of the Cellosaurus knowledge base through the CLASTR REST API. A command
  line application is included for use in automated workflows, and a Shiny application
  for interactive queries.
